Large Hernia

Until recently I had a huge hernia which was getting bigger all the time. Due to multiple health issues I was told it was too much of a risk to operate as it would be life threatening. I watched over the years as it slowly got bigger and bigger.  It was like having a large football sitting on the right side of my abdomen. So depressing as I was told it would get bigger and bigger.  Clothes not fitting feeling misshapen  very depressing.  Then on 2nd May Hernia became strangulated and my bowel became blocked.  So it had to be repaired. Thankfully even though it was such a risky op I have came through it and lived to tell the tale.  I thank the medical staff in Forth Valley Hospital for their care.  But most of all I thank God for a new beginning great to be rid of my horrible bulge.
